That is good news about the stability.

A lot of people are responsible for the port.  Ruslan Ermilov and Vsevolod
Lobko are responsible for the original port.  Matt Isaacs and I brought
the port up-to-date with NetBSD-current.  I wrote drivers for the PCI
controller, GPIO, watchdog, and---on the RB153---the CompactFlash slot.

Someday I would like to produce support for the NAND flash interface and
the ethernet switch on the ADM5120, and then tackle the RouterBOARD 3xx
and 5xx series.
